Venezula now gives more aid to south american countries than the US, it kicked the US oil companies out of its country, and instead uses the wealth amongst his own people and neighbours, demonstrating how easy (better?) life can be without an Imperialist Foreign country pulling the strings (and being very well rewarded for doing so).
In a recent challenge to his leadership, Hugo Chavez polled 61% of the vote ! Trouncing his challenger (much to the annoyance of the white house), and proving (again) to the world he has the mandate of the venezualan people.
Since his re-election he has been vigorously pursuing the idea of an "anti-imperialist" in latin america, and to a lesser extent globally.
Recently in moscow to complete buying 5 submarines, supposedly as protection of any future attempted blockade by the US, as well as protecting its offshore oil assets, Chavez said "The Americans don't want Russia to keep rising," he said. "But Russia has risen again as a center of power, and we, the people of the world, need Russia to become stronger.", also promoting the anti-imperialist ideals of lenin. Venezula is the only country ever to be granted permission to manufacture the famed AK47 assault rifle, and iranian designed cars and tractors stream off its production lines, on a recent visit to china Chavez agreed to increase by 300% oil exports to china, further cementing their countries relationship. Chavez is attempting to widen the areas to which it exports to reduce its reliance on exports to the US, and China is keen not to be dependent on the middle east for its oil, due to the excessive US influence.
And the insults that Chavez keeps throwing at Bush ???.........the response from the US has been very muted, to say the least. But why....................
The US has a crippling dependence of imported oil (60% of what it uses) and Venezuala is the 4th largest supplier of oil! Indeed some US refineries were specifically designed to refine the heavy Venezualan crude.
If Hugo Chavez has a plan to undermine the "sole superpower", hes doing a great job.
Still, the US still has its imports from the middle east............for now.
I had so much fun looking at the ancient anomolies the other day I had a wee look at some anomalies from mars, heres a link
